Top 5 Under-Eye Patches for Dark Circles, Puffiness, Dryness, and More

On the blog today, I'm talking about eye masks. After a (much needed) extensive research I've selected 5 of the best in the skincare market I believe are able to deliver the most effective treatments when it comes to nourishing the under-eye area.  
As I've mentioned here before, the skin around our eyes is 40 percent thinner than the rest of our face and it needs constant special care. Eye patches can help hydrating and brightening the skin, reducing puffiness and making us look more well-rested.

Some under-eye patches work by targeting dark circles, crow’s feet, wrinkles and fine lines, while nourishing the skin through high-quality ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides, anti-aging ingredients like retinol and brightening agents like caffeine and niacinamide. Take a look and discover more about it at the selection below:


VIIcode O2M OXYGEN EYE MASK FOR DARK CIRCLES


I've tested and approve the @viicodebeauty O2M Oxygen Eye Mask Night Repair. I use them while I sleep (once to twice a week) as it needs around 8 hours for best results. They contain a natural, alcohol-free, non-irritating formula and each mask is infused with a potent blend of nourishing ingredients that work hard to reduce dark circles, puffiness and wrinkles so we wake up looking youthful, refreshed and well-rested.

A few usage tips: There are 6 treatments/box and you can use 3 treatments/week or whenever you need a quick fix! If you feel uncomfortable sleeping with the patch on, wear them 2-4 hours during the day or before bed. Make sure skin is clean, dry and free of any creams or serums so that the patch can fit better to the skin. Click here to shop.

Chanel LE LIFT Anti-Wrinkle Flash Eye Revitalizer


An expert duo that wakes up the eyes in 2 steps: You apply the roll-on serum to your under-eye area and then place the hydrogel patches on your under-eye area, then leave them on for 10 minutes. According to Chanel, the products are formulated with the brand’s 3.5-DA, which is derived from eludes morning glory extract and helps firm and tone the skin.

Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Hydra-Gel Eye Patches


The Peter Thomas Roth eye patches are ideal for all skin types, but are especially great for parched, dehydrated skin as the eye contour gel patches moisturize with a liquid cloud of moisture and help improve the look of fine lines, crow’s feet and under-eye darkness.

They feature hydrating ingredients including glycerin and hyaluronic acid, which both draw moisture into the area to help under-eyes look and feel more hydrated. Additionally, these masks also contain caffeine to soothe and de-puff, and marshmallow root extract to soften skin. 

Joanna Vargas Skin Care Bright Eye Firming Mask


These easy-to-use, cooling eye patches absorb right into your skin without any greasy residue. The refreshing patches moisturize with a boost of hyaluronic acid and reduce puffiness courtesy of chamomile extract. The Joana Vargas eye patches formula also includes peptides that helps combat discoloration and thinning skin. The set comes with 5-Pair Eye Firming masks and you can use 1-3 times a week, for 10-15 minutes.

Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Concentrated Recovery Eye Mask


The Estée Lauder patches are made to provide smoother, more radiant under-eyes in just 10 minutes flat. They simultaneously hydrate with squalane and hyaluronic acid, soothe with chamomile and battle puffiness with caffeine and coffee extract. 

The high concentration of ingredients makes for a truly effective product, delivering plumper, calmer, more radiant skin with each application. This eye mask is so good, in fact, that you only need to use it once a week to reap the benefits.
